Havinig problems maybe this isn't even possible?
1. Created new partition from our iSCSI device for 40gb (would like to create VM for Nagios on this space)
2. Created initiator for Linux host on our iscsi device
3. Created new iSCSI storage in Proxmox

What I dont understand is why in the first pic it shows N/A N/A for used and capacity space?

But in the second pic it lets you know its 40GB

4. I configure new machine with the added iSCSI drive

5. I click start it states starting then stoping???

6. I change from iSCSI space to local dir and starts fine, no problems...

so how can I get it to start with iSCSI???

NOTES:

Target name: iqn.1984-05.com.dell:powervault.md3000i.60024e80005ab14f000000004a183534
Initiator name: iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:62ba7b788e54


Thanks in advance,

Doesnt look like it wants to communicate with our Dell MD3000i device with 15 brand new 300gb 15k SAS drives
Please help if possible,
Thanks in advance,
Joe

Think I may know what the issue is?
could this be because the iSCSI drive space isn't formatted yet?
Is there a place where I can post a feature request for Proxmox to format the iSCSI drive with a filesystem, whether it be ext3, ext4 or whatever upon detection?
 
So I guess I will look into iSCSI initiator setup for redhat, centos, in hopes of getting this feature to work.

Thanks
